IGN says that Destiny involves an alien ship that helps protect a city from monsters

Details of Bungie's first game since quitting the best-selling Halo franchise have been leaked online.

The gaming website IGN has obtained marketing materials revealing it is called Destiny,
and aims to create a universe "as deep" as the Star Wars franchise,

The project had been one of publisher Activision's most closely guarded secrets.

It has a 10-year exclusive arrangement with the development studio.

Activision has previously told investors that the game would be "genre-defining" and prove to be one of its two "largest growth opportunities"
over coming years, alongside the Call of Duty series.

Following IGN's exclusive, Bungie reproduced one of the images on its own site and confirmed the leak's authenticity.


According to IGN the game will be set 700 years in the future, and feature battles with aliens to protect the "last city on Earth"
after the collapse of mankind's efforts to colonise the Solar System.

A screenshot suggests the first title in the expected series will run on the PlayStation 3 and Xbox 360. Bungie's most recent releases
had only run on Xbox systems.

A decision to build another sci-fi franchise will see Destiny compete with the developer's original series.

Microsoft has said it has plans for at least another two Halo games. Its most recent sequel, Halo 4, was created by its own subsidiary 343 Industries.
The series as a whole has generated more than $3.4bn (

The surface screenshots have a Lost Planet quality. It feels like this game is telling the same story with a massive amount of money, and marketing, behind it.

Destiny takes place on the planet Earth, but well into the future when a mysterious weapon destroyed most of the planet and its inhabitants at the end of humanity

I have to agree. When I fist watched IGN's video, the first thing that came to mind was Halo. Although, this still looks promising. Especially with what Bungie's president said about it, about it tapping into your inner 7 year old and making it more of a magical adventure.

Hope more details come soon.

Of course it looks like Halo. Bungie IS Halo as far as I am concerned. With the direction Halo has gone, I would welcome a worthy replacement from the studio that made the game so great.

But with that comes a shorter life for the game. These days casuals aren't going to keep playing a game that takes a while to be able to do some real damage.

Any other PS4 users get into the Alpha? Played an hour or so, and I've had a blast. The weapons are nice. Powers are meh. Enemies are interesting, and fairly intelligent. Environments are gorgeous, and pretty fun to play in. Music is top notch. Got a mix of Borderlands and Halo. With just a bit of Mass Effect thrown in.

Controls are great and I like the rpg elements. I see some multiplayer gameplay on youtube and it looks fun also.

Seems like this game has a lot to offer. Definitely a day 1 purchase for me

Beta's "live" now. But Sony's servers are worse than ISH's so good luck getting it to download.

If you preordered digitally you should be able to get it download easily right now but slowly. If you went with a physical copy. Log into bungie.net then when you need to authenticate your PSN, keep refreshing the window that pops up wanting you to log in. Then go to profile--->codes.

And the waiting game for getting in the PSN store begins!

I went to the PS store and left it up for about 20 minutes and came back and I was in. The download from the store was super fast. You open the Beta and then there's a big file you download from Bungie.

So far it's been great (PS4). The servers are a little shaky at the moment seeing as I've lost connection twice. I play on a wired Fibre optic connection of around 50MB so I know it's not my end.

The atmosphere is fantastic. Considering this is still the beta the game looks incredible. This will definitely be the next shooter I pick up. So far I only have BF4 and that sucks.

Wtf? To play multiplayer in the beta, you have to:

be level 5, then go to a tower where there will be a green indicator above a The Crucible Handler, Lord Shaxx. he will enable the ability to play "Crucible" which is multiplayer.

They couldn't just have put a multiplayer menu?

So I just got up to level 6 and got PS Plus. Crucible is very, very fun. Very halo-esque but is quicker and has a more military-feel to it.

Lol they've been touting this game as being "next gen" all this time.

WTF is so next gen about playing boarderlands 2 with different helmets, gauntlets, armor and about 6 different weapon types with 3 different classes? Not the type of product I expected from bungie.

So I got to level 6, and started playing multiplayer. Just another game that rewards players based on time put in, rather than actual skill. Sure I can unlock all the best armor and weapons, but whats the point? First off, it's a beta so that shit probably won't carry over to the actual game and 2nd, the mechanics of multiplayer are worse than Halo 4 (which is pretty damn bad)

I see this game offering as much fun as boarderlands did, but not much more.

It's not that it's a bad game. (Titanfall is a bad game) It plays like boarderlands and boarderlands is a good game. What I'm saying is that it's nothing "out of this world" like other games that were just as hyped up were when they first came out.

When these games first came out, they lived up to the hype and were different for their time.

First sega CD game
Mario 64
Goldeneye
Original Halo on Xbox

Destiny isn't anything special, but since last year Bungie's been saying that it's the "next halo". It's not.

I definitely agree with you on Titanfall and somewhat agree with you on Destiny.

To me the game is a mix of Halo and Borderlands(both great games). I just feel like they took the best aspects out of each game.

I think it will live up to it's hype but it's not gonna be groundbreaking like those games you listed.

I'm enjoying the beta atm so I really don't have many complaints about the game but I get what your saying though.

I had zero interest in this as of a week ago. My last few months of gaming have been mainly 3rd person games. I'm ready to go back to some 1st person shooting. That and I've never play an MMO game.
Yeah, my mood has changed completely. If you read my previous post, I wasn't that excited, but now I'm really hyped for tomorrow. I still haven't even finished TLOU: RM, so I'll try and get Winter done tonight.

Won't be able to play this until my mom gets home from work at 6 tomorrow, that is if it's still in-stock by the afternoon.

Haven't had any interest in this, but it has release here right now, wondering if i should pick it up, so currently searching through as much as i can to see if i should buy it.

Only thing is, i don't have a great net connection. is it online only? and can you just play it single player?

Edit: Nvm, just been scanning the forums, online only, no single/multiplayer offline.
Damn i hate that. I really thought people would still try and cater to single & local multiplayer, especially local co-op, but i feel like we are a dieing breed sometimes.

It's a pretty awesome game but probably because I never bought the hype. Halo gameplay was better as far as the feel of firing a weapon but this game has more stuff to do.

You get to do missions in your own order by going to different planets or the moon. As you get better you get to unlock different guns and and powers. You can also do armor upgrades so you can survive a bigger firefight.

Im a level six after playing last night. I got this one power where my guy does this hulk smash thing and it kills almost everything near you. It's a nuclear option I use if I'm about to die because it takes forever to recharge.

Overall this game is solid and it gets better the more you play. The thing that keeps it fun is strategizing how you want to play a mission. You also get connected to other players automatically that can help you finish a mission.

So far I say this game is a solid 8 but could go up if the story has a good finish.

No trading system as far as I know. You can however trade between your characters.


I'm level 10, my multiplayer score really fluctuates a lot. Sometimes I have a .5 kdr and I'm middle of the pack on the team. And sometimes I'm at least around 1.0 and I'm the best by a decent bit. I can't seem to figure out the best way to play yet. I think the autorifle/shotgun combo is the best. But I'm not entirely sure.

Yo guys - just heard about the lack of voice chat and it makes me really not want to buy this game. I was hoping for some 1000 vs. 1000 type shit (yes this is an exaggeration but you get the point), and now I hear it's 3 people on a squad :facepalm

Also, I played enough borderlands 2 in my day... is this different enough to warrant a purchase?

For example I would consider Titanfall NOT worth a purchase, because I played so much COD and Halo. Game is fun but not enough to drop 60.

In all honesty if you've played through Borderlands chances are Destiny will feel too familiar. It's a mash up of Halo and Borderlands. It's a good game and I recommend it but chances are you might be wasting $60.

Wow this game is getting slammed by the critics so far and also by a lot of gamers.

Honestly I get some of the criticism. The lore and storytelling in this game is just bad. The beginning is pretty bad. The lack of voice chat options makes such a community driven game a little boring. The game is a huge grind.

But after 10 hours or so the game is starting to click with me. The shooting mechanics are rock solid. It's a beautiful game. It's a lot of fun if you are playing in a party. The multiplayer is very solid. It can be very challenging. The loot aspects starts getting a lot better once your character is past level 10 or so.

Very good all around game. And perfect for a release at this time. It's a grindy, mmo-ish style game that is going to keep you busy for a while. Bungie just made a few mistakes in their design that creates a lot of backlash for a very worthwhile product.

I'd like for it to be a bit tougher, but oh well. The multiplayer maps are all really good aside from one of the Mars ones, but its growing on me. All the worlds are really well done.

My only two complaints are the godawful story, and only having 3 people in a fireteam. It's just weird.

I did the first strike alone and died once, because I went full retard and didn't see the invisible ****ers until it was too late. Then decided to not switch to my shotgun.:facepalm Granted the array strike is only a level 20 one but still.

Different note since I got to a tough part: Venus is really tough, I like fighting the Vex. I've done all of it but the last mission on hard, and I get that sense of accomplishment that a lot of the negative reviewers are complaining about the game lacking. The teleportation mechanic for them is incredible.

Complaints:
Linear as hell. This isn't "open world" at all.

It' a shame you don't have gold, because the multiplayer is really the heart of the game.

The story sucks, that's my gripe about the game, there was a lot of potential with a great story (Bungie DID make Halo), but it sucks, but hopefully the coming expansion packs could make up for that.

The multiplayer is awesome, my two friends and I would do the story missions together, and then whenever one of us wasn't around we'd just do strike missions and patrol the planets to get materials and good rewards, the multiplayer aspect is SO fun, especially at harder levels where you're forced to use skill, teamwork, and a little bit of luck.

The game really starts when you hit level 20, because you only level up at that point through light, having legendary an exotic equipment (but only one exotic item at a time).

Right now I'm at 26, I have an exotic headpiece (which I bought last night), legendary gauntlets, legendary chest and boots and a blue class item, Blue auto rifle and sniper, and an exotic machine gun.

I'm gonna go ahead and save most of you about 60 bucks. Destiny is hot garbage, don't waste your time or your money. I'm so glad I decided to play it first before I spent my hard earned cash on it. Now I can sleep at night knowing I didn't spend 60 bones on a game that would do nothing but collect dust on my shelf of games that serve no purpose other than collecting dust and maybe occasional use as a coaster.

It's fun, but I'd wait for price drop before I'd even consider buying the game.

It's not really a borderlands per se, it definitely takes aspects of Borderlands 2 and doesn't imitate them as well.

Like I said, the heart of the game is in it's multiplayer, and it's much harder to grasp the real spirit of the game when you can't play with others, if you played with your friends it'd be a whole different experience.

Not my type of game, and I knew that going in. But I figured why not? It was free and the only other game I would have even considered was Madden (which when I last bought I played for about 4 hours total). At the very least I would have a presumably moderately entertaining online shooter to fall back on, since I stopped buying COD games. It's nice to have a game like that in your collection because we all get in that "I need to shoot something" mood.

And to no surprise... I'm not enjoying it. Of course I haven't unlocked the multiplayer mode yet. Been playing for two hours and I'm still level 4.

I'm level 22 and I've finished the campaign. All the missions are pretty much the same. Shoot aliens, move on, shoot more aliens until you get to the boss which is some variation of a bullet sponge. Shoot that bullet sponge until you've killed it then go to the next planet and repeat.

Sorry man but Destiny is all style and no substance. If you enjoy it great, but it's one of the most repetitive games in recent memory. Less than a week has passed and I'm no longer interested. Should have rented it.

Destiny is a good game, but it's not great. It was also supposed to be a revolutionary shooter. The most expensive game in history with Bungie wanting to support it for the next decade.

If a game is going to succeed for 10 years it's got to be outstanding. Bungie can't be serious if they think simply adding more planets will be enough. The majority of my PSN friends list are back on Battlefield 4. ****ing Battlefield 4!!!!!!

People must have forgot that Halo was pretty much the same. On every mission you're just shooting aliens.

Same thing with basically all shooters.

If y'all want puzzles and stuff play the old Tomb Raider games. Destiny is a fps with rpg elements.

My main gripe is that I wish my stuff carried over from the beta because I got the game Saturday and I'm a lvl 2 but I don't feel like playing through the same missions again.

I'm gonna play some more tonight when I get off but I've been spending most of my time on TLOU.

No way this game gonna last 10 years. Did they really say that?

Does the season pass last for 10 years?

JimmyMcAdocious
09-15-2014, 07:14 PM
10 years? What kind of shooter last 10 years with a good community? Counter Strike and probably Team Fortress 2. And that's largely because it's PC based.

There will probably be a next gen console in 10 years. Or everyone will realize PC is the master race by then.

Oh and I finally unlocked multiplayer and it's alright. I'm probably only going to play that going forward, since you level up and can get gear in there. Little annoyed with the map rotation, tho.

The 10 year plan refers to the franchise. This is the first Destiny game in a series of 3/4/5. That's their plan, not release one game and support it for 10 years. That sounds like a terrible business model for a non-subscription game.

:lol It doesn't make you a fanboy.

Destiny is a good game, but it's not great. It was also supposed to be a revolutionary shooter. The most expensive game in history with Bungie wanting to support it for the next decade.

If a game is going to succeed for 10 years it's got to be outstanding. Bungie can't be serious if they think simply adding more planets will be enough. The majority of my PSN friends list are back on Battlefield 4. ****ing Battlefield 4!!!!!!
Yeah, I finished the campaign just a couple hours ago (I thought I was at like the halfway point:lol )...reminded me of Halo 2. It felt half finished.:lol

I can see myself playing the multiplayer for a long long time. To me the mechanics, the guns, powers, etc etc. That was absolutely perfect. The best control scheme/power fit since they did Halo. I absolutely agree with the campaign complaints though. I can see the universe being worth 10 years, but they need writers, real writers. Not the shitty game writing they've had.

I enjoy it, my only complaint is it is hard as fvck to get vanguard marks and crucible marks. Feels like I would have to play a lot of hours just to level up in either one of those, let alone both. Multiplayer is fun, but the story is kinda all over the place and hard to follow. Really hoping for some improvements in the upcoming releases they put out.

Alright, been playing a little more. My last 5 levels (5-10) have come all through multiplayer. I tried jumping back into the single player mode (which was the first moon mission) and I just can't get into it. Ended up getting distracted by one of those community events, or whatever, completed it, and then I quit back to multiplayer.

Some thoughts/questions:
-Are you at a major disadvantage at a lower level in multiplayer? Because often I get one shot by random rifles and shotguns. Drives me nuts.
-If I don't do the story, will I miss out on anything important loot-wise? I figure if everyone is doing the story, then you must not get anything too rare in there.
-Does melee damage increase at a higher level? I'm used to melee = kill, so when I see someone close enough, I melee... But it only takes away 50-75% of the health and I don't have enough time to melee again or switch to my rifle. So basically: shooting > melee, always? I never win that battle between melee vs gun in close combat.
-I always feel like there should be more people. I do a mission and maybe I see another person. I go to the tower to mess around and maybe there's 8 people there. There's just no feeling of a living and breathing world.
-Really want chat.
-Need more maps online and less map repeats. Earlier today I played the exact same map 4 straight times in the same room. Also feel like there should be one more game mode.
-Are there no stats or leaderboards? Like where my k/d is, weapon stats, etc? I mean I'm getting my ass kicked, but I'm still curious.
-I've come across some problems with bad spawn points and I feel like those vehicles on the one map that can use them are bit OP. The last time I played it, I jumped in the tank looking one and I didn't die for the rest of the map. It was at least 10 straight minutes. 12 kill streak tho.

Those are the main ones I can think of right now.

Oh, I thought of another one; I think this is a XBox One bug. If I let my console run with the game running, the console shuts off by itself. The problem is that there's no sound in the game when I turn it back on. There's sound in the dashboard, and what not. None in the game. The only way I fixed it was by pressing the xbox button while in the game, clicking on anything, and then going back. Weird and not too troublesome. Just whatever. Wish the console would allow me to leave it running.

Level 27 but I can't even beat the lvl 26 Strike because my weapons are ass. My only gripe is they limit you to 100 vanguard marks a week but weapons cost 150, so I gotta wait 4 weeks because I need an Legendary auto rifle AND a legendary sniper rifle.

You not get an exotic weapon bounty after you reached level 2 in the crucible? Or is that ridiculously hard? I just got the bounty last night, and was gonna try and get the gun today.

No...and yes. The weapons are automatically balanced so no one weapon will be better than the others. However, the abilities of another player are where the low levels are getting their asses kicked (no offense, it seriously happens in every lobby) The abilities aren't balanced so that they only reactivate every 30 seconds or whatever. Instead its whenever they would naturally occur. Also titans have the most health, and are pretty OP when you're a low level. Shit I'm level 24 and some of them still kick my ass routinely. (note that when the Iron Banner releases next month there's no more weapon balancing)

Again no and yes. Most missions won't give you anything valuable. But, some missions will give you the blue armor you desperately need as a reward for beating it. And of course the random drops from enemies can be blue, or even rarely purple. The strikes will most of the time give you a blue piece of armor, occasionally its guaranteed but not always.

Yes, but to the best of my knowledge there's no one hit melee kill unless you come up behind someone. Usually you need to two piece to do it.

Typically I see tons of people in the tower, and often in the game. Not sure why you're not. Yeah a lot of people think there needs to be proximity chat. Often on PS4 if you start ****ing around and dancing with people on the tower, or playing with the ball that appears you'll get invited to a firesquad.:lol Surprised its not the same on xbone. The maps thing is kind of an issue, I think Bungie did a hot fix for all the systems yesterday for that. There's 14 maps, but I feel like more often than not I play the same 6 or so over and over and over and...

And yeah the spawns sometimes are a bit screwy particularly on the moon map. I swear Sands of Time, rumble mode is the same shit as well. But no one I play with has that problem. Only time that map ****s me over spawn wise.

- Got to level 20, finished the game, and was like wow.....what a horrible job on the story. The worlds look amazing though, and the NPC's aren't dumbed down.

- Started doing strikes, got purple armor and some exotic yellows... then grinded to get ascendant shards and energy to level up the legendary and exotics.

- Very boring, tedious grinding process....I'm at level 27.

- Crucible....already broken as the exotic auto rifle destroys all. Trust me, I know. No lag whatsoever though...amazing netcode.

- I want to play some 3v3 multiplayer with friends only and be able to pick which map to play on.... oh wait... can't do that....no custom multiplayer. What a failure...

- So basically I'm going to do the raids...level up to 30, and then I'm done as this game is simply a filler until the much better game, Halo Master Chief Edition comes out in Nov which will contain the original halo online multiplayer. No point in me playing any other game, as I've been waiting 15 years to play halo 1 online on the superior console version, as the PC version is a joke.

1. I just remember the name of the mission to know I beat it, it's confusing at first but you'll get used to it.

2. Yellow bar is your super/special, since you're beginnning, if you're a Titan it' a slam that creates a shockwave, Warlocks short an Void Orb that explodes, and Hunters get a golden gun that shoots 3 shots and does massive damage. It fills up by either killing enemies or collecting orbs when other people use their special attacks.

Until you reach level 20, just wait for good drops. Because then you'll start having blue engrams drop when you reach a higher level, it'll take longer to build your character at that point but you'll be wanting to save your Vanguard and Crucible Marks for weapons or major armour pieces.

It's tedious, you can only get 100 marks of each per week. So it'll take two weeks to purchase a weapon or more than one piece of armour, so be prepared to grind it out.

I don't know what takes less skill, the PvP aspect of this game or the PvE.

I call Destiny the game of randomness that awards you for time put in instead of actual skill.

PvE - run around doing missions and grinding until you can actuall get to the skillful aspect of the game which is the raid. I'm a level 28 and have all legendary armor, weapons, exotic weapons. Just slowly collecting ascendant shards and energy to max out the armor and weapon abilities. It's a grinding, boring process that takes zero skill whatsoever, it's just time consuming.

PvP - Can I please get killed by something other than a special kill or a weapon that uses heavy amo? That's what it is 95% of the time. Both of those take zero skill to use, meanwhile I'm owning with my sniper rifle, pulse rifle, and hand cannon or using my throwing knives.

I use a hunter because at least the melee move requires skill in throwing the knives and the super move is a golden gun that requires you to aim instead of just jumping into a crowd and getting instant kills with a warlock or titan special.

What is really sad is that I was doing a bounty which required 20 scout rifle kills that had to be head shots in the crucible, and still came in first place (not even using my real primary or secondary guns...what a joke...) only to see some noob with 4 kills and 20 deaths get a legendary engram. LOL

That's all this game is... randomness which requires no skill unless you are playing in the raid.

Level 28 missions are a joke when your character is at level 28.

I had my Voidwalker stuff maxed all the way out and figured I'd work on the Sunsinger part. It just feels so much better. Especially in the Crucible. I can't explain why, but I come in first place a lot now vs 3rd-last place using the Voidwalker stuff.

About the cave: Use a wax idol, it increases the money you get, so even if you get shitty drops, you're gonna get a lot of glimmer. Also, you don't have to even shoot at the enemies to get credit for the kills IF you're in the same area as the people shooting at the cave (which you should be otherwise either the thralls or the other hive members don't spawn). If there's enough people doing it I get lazy, and just turn on netflix for a bit, and watch it. Check back every 5 or so minutes. Yeah it's douchy I know. But you'll get credit for the kills, AND still get drops/glimmer.

About the crucible: Until the iron banner releases, all the weapons are balanced equally. Meaning that a level 14 assault rifle will do as much damage as a level 20. So accuracy is key. Just find something you can hit people in the head with. Handcannons are almost always 3 shots to the head (two for shield, one for health) for a kill. Its why I favor them. Body shots are nice, but if you're a precise player it doesn't matter. So basically just find the weapon you're best with, experiment with all of them even, and just roll with it. But once the Iron Banner hits...that changes everything. Because then the strongest/highest rated guns are the best.

On classes: in the week one update (I might be wrong on this) Bungie said the classes were actually about equally used. There's a couple percentage points difference but yeah. I feel like there's a lot of Warlocks especially. I'm one, and I definitely think sunslinger is better. The grenades are amazing, the ability to continually do fire damage even after dying, the self-reviving (which is amazing in control). I'm probably gonna make a Titan next because I have a few legendary pieces of armor for it. And I really think the melee is amazing. Also the bubble shield is horrible, and I'm surprised Bungie included that after all the negative feedback the armor bitch got in Reach.

Wasn't ready, but I tried the raid with 2 of my friends and some other people, holy shit.

We haven't even beat the first boss yet, those oracles are a pain in the ass, I got some legendary boots though, plus today I got the Exotic bounty for the Thorn, thats gonna suck to get...

In dire need of Void weapons though. Particularly a legendary sniper.

Thorn's bounty isn't as bad as it seems. I got the 500 points in like 4 hours. Just don't die a lot, and that part flies by. The hardest part is the last thing you need to do which is beat the Unwed wizard on the goddamn Phogoth mission. He spawns in the last wave of enemies.

What my friend and I did was just take out most of the people on the first wave. Retreat to the room where you can see phogoth out the door. Then stayed in there and just fought. But you need to have someone occasionally leave the room (its okay if they die they'll respawn in 30 seconds) and kill some stuff. You'll know a new wave has started when you see the thralls and/or a hive drop ship appears. Just be careful because one of the spiny hover monsters of doom will spawn in that room to deter players from camping in there.

But for right now Thorn is pretty weak. They're fixing in a future update, but it is weak.

So, this explains A LOT. Also I bet the redditor who came up with the conspiracy theory about us fighting for evil is laughing now at all the hate he got for it. :lol

Gonna be really interesting to see what response Bungie has to these allegations.

tl;dr version. People have found that a lot of the destiny story/missions/characters? have been gutted from the game within the last year. And want answers.

Yeah. I was kinda expecting some of that from when the girl (I forgot her name) tells you "that its better to choose a side, even if it's the wrong one." And the camera stays put on her face. Plus you never trust the relatively silent, masked guy, who's speaking for someone else. That's usually a bad thing.:lol

Also I'm pretty largely concerned with the DLC basically amounting to the story that we lost. If that happens...I won't buy it and I might just sell the game off. I hate the day one dlc/the on disc dlc. But having it be the story we lost? That's even more despicable.

I completely agree. The game play is awesome, but if they try that DLC shit for the story I'd probably sell mine too.

It doesn't hold your attention because it's a half-assed, unfinished, mess.
